Untitled



       Long long ago, there was a big scary monster called “nian (year).
All people were afraid of it. It came out from mountains on Chinese New Year’s Eve. So people in the village didn’t come out of their houses on Chinese New Year’s Eve. Someone who had seen nian said it had red skin, long teeth, a large body, and a short tail. And its face was very scary. No matter children, adults or olders, everyone was afraid of it.
One day, a clever old man came to the village. He heard about nian from local people. He thought, ‘I must expel nian out of there.’ Then, he decided to live in the village.
